What it does
Consulting firms need a website that explains what they offer, introduces the people behind the work and gives visitors reasons to trust them. This theme is built around that need. It includes ready-made layouts designed for consulting businesses, plus dedicated sections for consulting packages, success stories and team profiles. You pick a layout, adjust it to fit your services and add your own content, without writing code.
Pages are created and edited with a drag-and-drop builder, and typography and color options let you match fonts and color schemes to your brand. The design is fully responsive and works across major browsers. The theme also supports common WordPress plugins, including WooCommerce for selling, Contact Form 7 for inquiry forms and WPML for multilingual sites, so it can grow with a practice that serves clients in more than one language.
